Feeding frenzy: next exit

FAMILY FIRST NZ's role is to be a voice for families in the public domain, and to research family, marriage and pro-life issues. The following list contains just over 25 family issues and policies. Will you complete the survey for us? Your opinion will shape the work of Family First NZ, so that we can better represent families in New Zealand.It only takes a couple of minutes to complete but we would greatly appreciate your input.

When it came to naming youthful bridesmaids and page boys - expected to provide unbelievably cute photogenic fodder - Prince William seems to have exercised his royal prerogatives, Vickers said.

"Most of the bridesmaids and pages are very much from William's side, although that's not surprising," he said.

"It was very much the same at Charles and Diana's (1981) wedding."

...

Having the kiddie contingent so young could pose a logistical challenge familiar to any parent. Could we see tantrums as the ceremony is broadcast live to millions around the world? It's possible, but hopefully not.

"I'm sure the bridesmaids will be kept in line and not allowed to run amok," Little said.

Could we see more twaddle like this published in our newspapers? Alas, I think we could.

Having watched some quantity of British news bulletins at the time of the announcement, I can report that the Old Country was already awash with such twaddle. Royal "experts" appeared to be simply making things up.

My first observation will be that the unbelievably cute photogenic fodder were probably chosen from the groom's side because the bride's family are quite naff; their ghastly friends probably have horrid children with names like Courtney and Brandon.

I shall also observe that it is a fitting tribute to Princess Margaret that her grand-daughter hss been named Margarita.

Thanks Paul for linking to this survey. I have tried hard, i.e. twice, to log on but get this:"Bandwidth Limit ExceededThe server is temporarily unable to service your request due to the site owner reaching his/her bandwidth limit. Please try again later."

"Dandyism is above all the burning need to make oneself an original, contained within the outer limits of propriety. It is a kind of self-worship... It is the pleasure of surprising others and the prideful satisfaction of never being surprised."
